Horror sequels rarely stand out for their good quality, but there are some that managed to live up to the original movies and were even better.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT In most cases, movie sequels don’t live up to the original movie, and this is often seen in the horror genre, but there have also been various horror sequels that were as good or even more than their predecessor. The horror genre is home to some of the most popular and successful franchises in film history, though that doesn’t necessarily mean that the sequels have been good.
10 Happy Death Day 2U Happy Death Day 2U is the 2019 sequel to 2017’s Happy Death Day, both directed by Christopher Landon. Happy Death Day 2U reunites viewers with Tree Gelbman , who even though broke free of the time loop in the first movie, is thrown back into it thanks to an experimental quantum reactor – the only difference with the past loop is that this one is set in a different timeline.
6 Scream Another franchise revived through the reboot/requel trend in the horror genre is Scream, which was brought back to life in 2022 with a sixth installment, simply titled Scream. The movie brought back the three main characters of the saga – Sidney Prescott , Gale Weathers , and Dewey Riley – while introducing a new generation of survivors, led by sisters Sam and Tara Carpenter , who came across a new Ghostface.
3 Halloween The Halloween franchise also benefited from the reboot/requel trend thanks to Halloween , which marked the beginning of a reboot trilogy. As a direct sequel to John Carpenter’s original 1978 movie, thus ignoring the rest of the sequels, Halloween reunited viewers with Laurie Strode four decades after her first encounter with Michael Myers.
